Garden Clean Up Auckland

Back to a garden you can use.

A garden clean-up in Auckland usually follows a warm, wet year that's buried the section: kikuyu over the paths, weeds through the beds, shrubs over the fence. Spruce cuts it back, weeds, mows and takes the green waste away. Book it before a sale, a rental handover, or when you've just moved in.

The right-sized clean-up

How we clear a section

Clearing an Auckland section, the right way round.

Auckland clean-ups usually mean kikuyu, clay and a lot of green waste. Working from the top down keeps it quick and leaves nothing behind.

Walk round first. We agree what stays and what goes before anything's cut, so nothing you want kept ends up in the green waste.

Top down. Overgrown shrubs and hedges first, so the clippings fall where they'll be cleared anyway.

Kikuyu pulled back. Runners cut back off paths and out of beds, so the edges show again.

Weeds out, lawn last. Beds weeded, then long grass cut down in stages once everything else is done.

All of it taken away. Green waste loaded up and taken with us, and paths and decks blown clean.

What's included

What an Auckland clean-up includes.

Every clean-up is priced to the section, but these are the jobs most Auckland ones involve. Anything else, ask and we'll add it to the price.

Overgrowth: shrubs, hedges and climbers cut back.
Kikuyu: runners cut back off paths and out of beds.
Weeds: cleared from beds, borders and paths.
Lawns: long grass cut in stages, then mowed and edged.
Leaves and debris: raked up across the section.
The berm: mowed while we're there, if you want it done.
Green waste: loaded and taken away.
A final walk round: together, or photos sent if you can't be there.

Auckland clean-ups

When Auckland gardens need a clean-up.

Auckland's growing season is long, so a garden can get away between one owner or tenant and the next. Here's when clean-ups are usually booked.

Before an open home

The frontage and back garden sorted before the photos. Pairs well with a pre-sale clean.

Rental handovers

Grounds brought back for the final inspection when they're part of the tenancy. Book it with an end-of-tenancy clean.

Just bought

A fresh start on a section the last owners let go.

Empty houses

Sections that ran wild while a house sat empty, cleared back to the fence line.

After a wet spring

A reset when kikuyu and weeds have got ahead after the spring rain.

Bush-edge sections

Leaf litter and self-sown seedlings cleared from sections on the bush edge out west.

FAQ

Auckland garden clean-up FAQs.

The things Aucklanders ask most about clearing an overgrown section.

It depends on the size of the section, how overgrown it is, how much green waste there is and how easy it is to get to. Text us a few photos and we'll give you a price before anything's booked.
Yes. Everything we cut, pull and rake up is loaded and taken away with us, so there's no skip to hire and no trip to the transfer station.
From a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the size of the section and how overgrown it's got. We'll tell you when we send the price.
Yes. Tell us the listing or open home date and we'll work back from it. The house can be cleaned at the same time.
It depends on your tenancy agreement. If the lawns and gardens are yours to look after, a clean-up before the final inspection saves a disagreement later. We can do it alongside your end-of-tenancy clean.
Spruce works right across Auckland, from inner-city rentals to big sections in the west and south. Tell us your suburb and we'll confirm when we can get to you.
Yes. Once it's cleared, fortnightly or monthly garden care, or a regular mow, stops it getting away again.
